Correct option is A

The correct answer is (a) G.D. Kumar.​

The Gurmukhi paper called Swadesh Sewak, which advocated social reforms and urged Indian troops to rise in revolt against British rule, was brought out by G.D. Kumar from Vancouver during the freedom struggle.

G.D. Kumar established the Swadesh Sevak Home in Vancouver, modeled after the India House in London. He also launched a Gurmukhi newspaper called Swadesh Sewak, which advocated for social reform and called on Indian troops to revolt against British rule.

In 1910, after being forced out of Vancouver, Tarak Nath Das and G.D. Kumar established the United India House in Seattle, USA, to further their revolutionary activities.

The revolutionary movement in Canada gained momentum with the visit of Bhagwan Singh, a Sikh priest, in early 1913. Having previously worked in Hong Kong and the Malay states, Bhagwan Singh openly advocated for the violent overthrow of British rule and urged Indians to adopt Vande Mataram as a revolutionary salute. His activities, however, led to his expulsion from Canada after a three-month stay.
